All New Football Rumours

[FIF]

We would have stayed up if we had!

We'd have stayed up if Hendo had scored one against stoke!

 

[consty]

and what if its more to do with how his being managed and told how to play or lack of service??

I blame Holoway for a lot - but in Howard you could see a man who just won't do it for Leicester. If we persist with him under a new manager, it will be just like repeating the error of keeping on Fryatt through several managerial changes. You can just sense when a player is going to work for you or not. In fact it comes down to one sense - using your eyes to watch they guy not perform week in, week out. Holloway no doubt exacerbated this but whereas several others appeared to be trying and at least doing 'ok', Howard was far from one of them. If the football field was a stage I'd say Howard was just dying out there.

Sorry don't agree, Howard is nothing like Fryatt, put Billy Davies in charge or a manager who plays to his strengths and we would have a potent striker and one IMO who would score 20 goals a season no problems. Howard IMO too often looked frustrated rather than disinterested, he was feeding off scraps or through balls, he is not the type of striker to run the channels, because of this he was made to look a poor player.

As for Fryatt, IMO his "troubles" are more to do with motivation, it is clear to see he was suffering a hangover from not being granted the opportunity to move on to bigger and better things, 6 months after joining us and the way the club has digressed it is pretty clear to see that he is disillusioned and see his career, pretty much like that of the club, stagnating.

I remember it being mentioned on here, I think it was Birmingham that were after him in the summer following his move in the January.

Howard would do well with Newell in charge

Derby want former England boss Steve McClaren to take them back into the Premier League. (News of the World)

I hear there is substance to this rumour, from a source who has in the past got it spot on. I just wonder where Jewell could end up should he leave there.

Good. His record at Derby makes Holloway a world beater!

If we sign even a quarter of those players, I'm going to kill somebody.

Exactly, I've only heard of Bell, and I'd never heard of him until he came to play for us.

He's the small guy who doesn't seem to dribble as much as he would like to.

It says in the Sunday People today that Larry Grayson will be our new manager and it will be announced in early June just as soon as they have sorted out Holloways severence deal. Apparently Larry is hacked off with the Blackpool board who won't give him any cash for transfers.
